Sorry the facts on dates are not clear.
Anyways, if the said sale by the Attorney Holder to his wife in 2006 is registered after the death of the Attorney, then the said Sale is invalid as the GPA naturally dies along with the Maker of the Attorney. So, please make sure whether as on the date of said Sale in 2006, the said Attorney was alive.
If the said registration to the wife is before the death of the Attorney, then the Sale is absolute as per the terms of the GPA, and you can purchase the property from the said Wife. If the said Sale is invalid, then you have to ask the heirs of the deceased to obtain a Letter of Administration to sell it to you.
